NO brainer

1st Gen fire pokemon are the best; hence my user name

My name means both raven and prince in Irish & Celtic

simply the name iv used on every pokemon file iv played since i was about 8

This is the username I've been using since I was 5. 'mon' came because I was obsessed with Digimon, 'ro' came out of nowhere, and '1' came to satisfy the 6-character length requirement of usernames.

"Slim Shady" is Eminem's nickname, and also his second album, my personal favourite (apart from Recovery). Eminem's my second favourite rapper. My first is Lil Wayne, but I didn't want to call myself "Weezy" on any Pokemon forums, coz it sounds like Weezing, which is a terrible excuse for a Pokemon.

My username comes from one of my favorite Pokémon. Originally, it was going to be Farfetch'd or something like that, but it was either used or blocked. So I took Nosepass instead.

When I was a senior in high school five years ago, my English class did a unit on Urban Legends and were given a video project. In groups of four were were to make a short film containing three Urban Legends. The groups needed to be named, and one guy in our group chose Red Rum and then at the last second as the teacher was making a note of it he extended it to Red Rum She Said. I do not like the 'She Said' part for my user name but compensated in my sig.
I liked the name a lot(and the project too bad ours got **** up XP) and first used it on an Ebay account that was supposedly hacked around the same time(because I somehow ended up with a ton of emails regarding listings that were not mine) called RedRumCheshireCat. I just recently reacquired an interest in using it.

Hm. Well, I got big into Phoenix Wright and joined a forum for that. And as a parody name for Phoenix Wright and Apollo Justice, I made up Leo Greatergood. Then later I shortened my name on that site, and then came here, tried to sign up as just "Leo" but it was taken, so I did "LeoTheLion" AHA.

Eragon.I forget which book though.I also use Ebrithill,another Oromis/Eragon reference,on adventure quest worlds.

this goes back way before some of you knew what pokemon was. on my fifth birthday, i got a realy high tech pice of technology, a GAMEBOY ADVANCE SP! it was so cool! i was like the big kids in my neiborhood. my very first videogame was Saphire. cool eh, why i'm hooked. so i was having a bad day, i couldn't find out how to get badge 2. i was mopi'n and then, i saw this immage of a arron in my head. i immideately renembered what my friend had said abut gym2. go to the iand (forgot it's name) and go into the cave. go to the botom floor and see a aron. i caught it, saw it's type, and named it Steelbound. i knew that it was special to me and swore to take care of it (hey, I was 5, cant blame me) two months later and a GBA cord, Kick*** steelbound, on the floor was uber. beat evryone. turn on my game to come up with a unique username, and saw steelbound. A FREAKING SHINY! so, now i'm steelbound.

Steelbound is curently a Lv: 99 Aggron.

.... Pokemon came out in 1998, Pokemon Sapphire came out 5 year's later (2003), not too many of the REAL forum goers here are 12. We knew what pokemon was before you did, some of us were around for came out when GSC was released (me, I was 5), but RBY was still my first game. And some of us were around for when RBY came out... Just sayin, don't be acting like you've been around, lol. (:

hurt full

"not too many" lol

oh i didnt see that

sory, ment seven. i'm 14. messed up.

This is awesome.

Srsly. I was twelve before Red and Blue came out in the US.

i dont care. ive still ben playing pokemon for most of my life.

my user name was born of my passion for Norse mythology.

I've been using it for various things since I was like 10.

Well, i guess i should mention it. Actually, my username was a name that just instantly popped out when i was thinking. When i'm thinking more and more, i don't really like this name after all. I would prefer much simpler name probably only 6 characters.

Origin of my username.... Needed one for a game and wanted to put "God of Destruction" But it was too long. So I shortened it to GofD. And its easy to remember.

No one's going to guess how I got mine!
Actually, I've been dropping hints all over the forums, and people don't know it!
torchie is for my Emerald version's faithful (and first ever 100 Pokemon in my trainer history) Blaziken.
The trainer's name is May in Emerald. I converted the letters into corresponding numbers.
M=13
A=1
Y=25
Since there are 26 letters in the alphabet (English)...
Yeah, I'm clever, no?
BTW, I just made a RP and I'm dropping a hint. The code word? StarCraft!
EDIT: Since it was getting too long about some off-topic thing (eh hem, sorry...), I myself have just shortened this up so it stays (mostly) on topic.

Well, I go surfing and my favorite pokemon is Pikachu
